So I used the light presets in daz 4.8 that are disc mesh light and rectangular I Ed too. I cannot figure them out. Nohing comes from them when I render a shot. And they just don't seem to be putting off any light. I probably don't know what to do for initial setup. I looked at the mesh light tutorial here but it didn't help much. Using iray for rendering.

    A couple of ways to do this.

    The easiest is to Create a Photometric light. That contains options for shape and size.

    The other way is to create a plane (or any other mesh) and apply the Iray material to it.
    Then adjust the 'Emmision' of the material.


    Are you trying the Uber Area Lights? They are for use with 3Delight, not Iray.
